Support Your Customers by Making Travel & Transportation Information Accessible Online

In 2021, two-thirds of revenue in the global travel and tourism market came from online sales channels via a mobile app or website without human interaction. In the post-pandemic world, this figure is likely to be even higher. You’d probably think that’s a good thing. Online booking is quick, easy, and efficient, after all.

But while that may be the case for many people, it’s not as straightforward for passengers with disabilities. Providing assistive technology on your transportation website will remove online barriers enabling customers to book their journey hassle-free, and stay up to date with changes and delays.

Why you Should Provide Online Support on Travel & Transportation Websites

Overcome Language Barriers
On-page translation and text-to-speech options make websites accessible for tourists who don’t speak or read in English as a first language.
Increased Revenue
Adults with disabilities spend an estimated $17.3 billion on travel every year. If accessibility barriers were eliminated, travelers would increase their budget by up to 34%.
Excel in Hospitality
Customer service is paramount in the travel and transport industry. Website accessibility tools demonstrate commitment to exceptional service at every customer contact point.

Let us show you how easy it can be.
